Revenue Collector is Just $1.48 Short| E. W. North, collector ot internal rev- enues, is short to the extent of $1.48. Mr. North notified a “corporation” that their federal tax was due, and that it amounted to the total of $145. Im- mediately in answer to his notification came a check for the necessary amount, and Mr. North malled the customary re- ceipt. Later he had the misfortune to discover, through the bank the chetk was on, that the little slip of paper had nothing behind it, and s> Mr. North is out just that amount. It seems probable that checks will not be cordially recelved in his office in the future, although Mr. North is a good loser, and may not go to extremes to protect himself from such games in the future, MOTORCYCLE DISPATCH RIDERS HERE WEDNESDAY On July 21, next Wednesday, the Trans- continental motorcycle dispatch is due in Omaha at 3 ». m.

The boys are getting thelr machines in shape to make this ride on schédule time. Arrangements have been made with all the towns through which they will pass, to ride through at full speed., No doubt but what there will be a number of riders who will participate in this run, as any or all of them can go, yet none of them have the right to pass the dlspatch riders.

Phelps, managér of the Bradels Stores green room, and aiso some $18 of Mr. Phelps' money. It seems Phelps had a couple of autos for sale and Ellls offered to turh the deal, but sald one machine needed a wind shicld. He was given a check for $I¥ and he purchased the accessory, only to subse- quently assert the wind shield was warthless and take it back, recelving the $18 back, but this time in cash.
